Footage captured the moment of the attack in Bath Road, Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, which is now under police investigation. The victim said: ‘I was worried that it may cause a fire or my dog or other may get cuts from it. ‘I asked them very nicely to pick it up and explained my reasoning. They then turned around and that was when I was smashed in the face.

‘I fell to the ground I felt my legs go. It was whilst I was on the floor than one of them kicked me in the side of my face – all for asking them to pick up the bottles that they had smashed.’ The group are then said to have fled the scene, however the incident was caught on CCTV. Hampshire Constabulary said they received a report that a man, believed to be in his 40s, had been assaulted on Bath Road in the town.
